Ep. 127: 4 Overlooked Reasons Why Motherhood Takes a Toll on Your Sex Life & 5 Steps To Break The Cycle

As summer is upon on (at least when this episode was recorded) I am reminded often what we take on as mothers. From coaching clients who are mamas to being one myself I find so many similarities in how we approach our pleasure and the impact that motherhood has on our sex life.

There are of course obvious ways that our sex life is impacted - late nights, sleep deprivation, pregnancy/post-partum, privacy issues etc. But I wanted to spend some time focusing on some of the overlooked ways that mother hood can take a toll on our sex life.

In this part episode we will focus on the top 4 Overlooked Reasons for this phenomenon and then in part 2, the steps you can take to break this cycle.

Whether or not you are a mama I think you will find this episode useful as it touches on many of the ways we are socialized as women, the labor we take on and how this impacts our sexual pleasure.

And as always I absolutely love to hear if you are enjoying this podcast, please send this on to a mama in your life and if you can take two minutes to write a review I would so appreciate it.

What You’ll Learn from this Episode:

• The importance in understanding these overlooked reasons SO that you can start off with more understanding for your self.
• What invisible labor is and the role it plays with our nervous system and receptivity to touch
• The narrative that most mamas have that keep you from intimacy
• Lack of time boundaries and how this ultimately serves no one
